Target Participants
This conference is open to all OSCM ECRs, including PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and junior faculty members such as lecturers and assistant professors, consistent with the Economic and Social Research Council’s definition of ECRs (https://www.ukri.org/what-we-do/developing-people-and-skills/esrc/early-career-researchers/).

Submission Procedure
ECRs interested in presenting their research in the Parallel Presentation Sessions of the conference need to submit an abstract via https://forms.gle/NgcWQEXnCbuxAesYA by 29 March 2026 (Sunday). A Google account is needed for abstract submission. All submitted abstracts will be reviewed and the submitting authors will be notified of the submission outcomes by 6 April 2026 (Monday). Maximum 24 abstracts will be accepted for presentation. Please note that PhD students accepted to attend the 2026 OSCM PhD Summer School will present their research in the PhD Presentation Competition session rather than in the Parallel Presentation Sessions.

Conference Registration
All ECRs are welcome to register and attend the conference, regardless of whether they will present in the Parallel Presentation Sessions. Registration will open on 6 April 2026 via https://payments.liv.ac.uk/conferences-and-events/events-at-liverpool/management-school 

Please note that, due to capacity constraints, registrations will be limited to 100 participants. PhD students accepted to attend the 2026 OSCM PhD Summer School do not need to register separately for the conference, as their PhD Summer School registration already includes conference attendance.
